The Lincoln C is a concept car manufactured by Lincoln, which was unveiled at the 2009 North American International Auto Show.[1]

It included a 1.6 liter EcoBoost engine rated at 180 hp (134 kW) and 180 lb⋅ft (244 N⋅m) of torque, with a dry dual-clutch PowerShift 6-speed transmission. The Ford Sync system features a female avatar called Eva, which can be customized.[2]

A production version of the Lincoln C concept has not been officially announced or unveiled, but the concept remained on the official Lincoln website as a "future vehicle."[3] With Ford having canceled the Mercury brand and investing heavily in Lincoln,[4] Ford canceled the C concept and its successor was the Lincoln MKC concept unveiled in 2013.[5][6]
